Schedule a Tour or Individual Campus Experience

Daily Campus Tours & Interviews

Wooster offers individual and personalized visit experiences throughout the week and on select Saturdays. All individual visits include a student-led campus tour and the option for a conversation with an admissions representative. Students interested in participating in a Division III sport may request to meet with a coach (subject to availability).

While on campus, you’ll also have the opportunity to have an interview with an admissions staff member. This 30-minute conversation is an opportunity for you to share your interests and experiences which allows our team to best support you through your college search and application process. Interviews are recommended for admission, and are a required step to be eligible for our top merit scholarship, the College Scholar Award.

Check the “Lodging Options & Maps” section at the bottom of the page for discounted rates at local area hotels.
